Industrial Sights - Novartis

In the past, trainees have said that they wished that they had more industry exposure during their time in Switzerland. To respond to this need, IAESTE created "Industrial Sights", for the first time in the summer of 2001. Industrial Sights is designed to take trainees to different companies and introduce them to different technologies. The trips are designed to last between 2 and 4 hours and will cover the basic areas of that particular company.

Don't be scared, this is not school!

Now you might be wondering why you should go. Because it will be fun and the bonus is that you might actually learn something.
